Local chiropractic physician Ken Bishop recently took ownership of ME Fitness in Newport. Me Fitness has operated in Newport in a variety of forms for more than a decade.

Bishop has been a practicing chiropractor in Newport for about four years, and has recently opened Integrated Body Therapeutics, a rehabilitation, sports medicine, and wellness focus clinic on the premises of Me Fitness. The clinic is currently looking for additional staffing and will be announcing a full opening in the coming months, but is currently accepting new patients.
